Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Li Ji said slowly.

"This king has asked Wang Bei to investigate. Judging from the clues found so far, the most suspected person is Li Zhaoyuan."

Hua Manman was stunned.

She obviously didn't expect Li Zhaoyuan to be involved in this matter.

Li Ji slowly revealed the clues from the investigation.

"The reason why Hua Jieyu fell into a coma was because she smelled the incense in the room.

Wang Bei carefully inspected the incense burner in the room, and found a little incense ash from the lowest side of the incense burner.

That incense ash comes from a very rare and rare spice called manju.

It is good for insomnia, but can cause coma if used in excess.

Ten years ago, Loulan in the Western Regions presented Manzhu as a tribute to Da Zhou.

At that time, Concubine Li was quite favored, so the sage rewarded her with some manzhu. "

Hua Manman: "In other words, only Li Zhaoyuan has Manzhu in the whole palace?"

But Li Ji said: "No, I also have some Manzhu here."

Hua Manman was stunned again.

Li Ji didn't deliberately play tricks this time, and explained.

"This king has suffered from insomnia for the past few years. After the sage learned about this, he specially gave all the remaining Manzhu in the palace to this king.

But this king has never used it, and those manzhus are still sealed in the warehouse of the palace. "

Hua Manman feels that this matter is getting more and more complicated, and her little head is not enough.

Li Ji said with a smile.

"Maybe this king ordered someone to stun your sister and send your sister to the dragon bed."

Hua Manman denied it without even thinking about it.

"Impossible, you wouldn't do such a thing, it wouldn't do you any good."

Li Ji said: "This king has a weird temperament, he never cares about the benefits of doing things, he only cares about his own pleasure.

As far as this king is concerned, seeing other people's misfortune makes him very happy. "

Hua was speechless.

But she still shook her head, deciding that it was impossible for King Zhao to do this.

Li Ji looked into her eyes and didn't hear any other voices in her heart.

In other words, what she said at this time was the truth.

She really believed in him unwaveringly.

Li Ji looked at her more deeply and intently.

"Only the king and Li Zhaoyuan have Manzhu in their hands. If you believe that the king is not the mastermind behind the scenes, then Li Zhaoyuan is the only suspect."

Hua Manman still shook her head: "It can't be her."

Li Ji asked with great interest.

"Why can't it be her?"

Hua Manman: "From Li Zhaoyuan's reaction yesterday, it can be seen that she was very jealous of the fact that her concubine's sister climbed onto the dragon bed, so she did not hesitate to harm her concubine's sister.

With her heart, she can't do anything like send other women to the dragon bed. "

Li Ji: "Maybe that's just the appearance she deliberately showed, in order to confuse the public and clear the suspicion on herself."

Hua Manman analyzed seriously.

"If she really didn't want herself to be suspected, she shouldn't have used manju, an extremely rare spice, from the very beginning.

There are many ways to stun people, but she chose the easiest way to expose herself.

Doing so is counterintuitive.

Li Ji raised his eyebrows: "According to what you mean, is someone deliberately using Manzhu to frame Li Zhaoyuan?"

The flower hesitated to speak for a long time.

She felt that the people behind the scenes seemed to be trying to frame Li Zhaoyuan, but the person who was really pointed at was King Zhao.

Everyone in the palace knew what kind of woman Li Zhaoyuan was, and she couldn't do anything that would stun other women and send them to the dragon bed.

Choose one of the two.

Once the suspicion of Li Zhaoyuan is lowered, the suspicion of King Zhao will soar.

Li Ji heard her voice and said with a smile.

"Say what you have, there is no need to cover up in front of this king."

Hua Manman hesitated for a moment before expressing the guess in his heart.

She was very worried: "The sage will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, will he suspect you?"

Even if the emperor loves Zhao Wang, he will not allow Zhao Wang to set himself up.

Once the emperor becomes suspicious of King Zhao, the future life of King Zhao will definitely become difficult.

But Li Ji still acted like a normal person, and said leisurely.

"Who knows? The saint's mind is very deep, and it's not something ordinary people can figure out."

Hua Manman wanted King Zhao to take the initiative to explain clearly to the emperor, but after thinking about it, this kind of thing is a mess. It's okay if King Zhao doesn't explain it, but if he really wants to explain it, it may become darker and darker.

It's better to let nature take its course and wait and see.

So she shut up and went back to enjoying her breakfast.

Manzhu has also been found by the emperor.

Suspects centered on Li Zhaoyuan and Zhao Wang.

After the emperor listened to his subordinate's report, he didn't have much reaction on his face.

He looked at Hua Jieyu who was kneeling beside him, and asked leisurely.

"Who do you think Li Zhaoyuan or King Zhao is the one who set you up?"

Hua Qingqing raised her hands, and her wide sleeves slid down, revealing a small white and slender wrist.

She put the refreshments brought by the maid on the table and said softly.

"If I let the concubine come to see it, the concubine feels that neither of them is the same."

The emperor seemed to be interested, and asked with a smile: "Why do you see it?"

Hua Qingqing: "Because the clues are too obvious, it's a bit deliberate."

The emperor's eyes showed appreciation.

He likes smart women, especially smart and beautiful women.

It just so happened that Hua Qingqing had both.

Emperor: "Then who do you think should have done this?"

Facing the inquiry from the king of a country, Hua Qingqing was a little nervous, but she still expressed her analysis in detail.

"Originally, I thought that the man came for me.

But now that Manzhu has been found, the concubine can be sure that the man did not come for the concubine.

His real purpose is actually His Majesty and King Zhao.

He wanted to sow dissension and create a rift between King Zhao and His Majesty. "

The emperor asked again: "Even if I have a conflict with King Zhao, what benefits can that person get from it?"

Now Hua Qingqing couldn't answer.

She blushed in embarrassment.

"The concubine is dull and can't figure out the reason."

The emperor smiled slightly, stroked her delicate and beautiful cheek with his big hand, and said in a warm voice.

"If you can't figure it out, then you don't need to guess."

He was a little suspicious of Hua Qingqing at first, thinking that she was directing and acting on her own.

But now Manzhu has been found.

On the contrary, all the suspicions on Hua Qingqing were cleared away.

Manzhu is not something that ordinary people can get. With Hua Qingqing's identity and status, it is impossible for her to get Manzhu.

Like him, she has fallen into the trap of others.

Because of this level of relationship, the emperor felt a little more pity for Hua Qingqing.

The emperor said: "You are alone in this Yuqing Palace, and you don't know anyone. If you feel bored, you can go find your sister. It just so happens that she is injured. You can visit her."

Hua Qingqing was touched: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding."

That afternoon, Hua Qingqing went to visit Hua Manman.

King Zhao sat by and stared at them unkindly.

Hua Qingqing is not afraid at all.

She came to visit her second sister this time by order, and even King Zhao couldn't drive her away.

...
